Windows are beautiful design elements that allow the natural light into our homes, offices, and buildings. However, windows can also be a source of problems. Windows can create glare; cause fading of your furniture, floors, artwork and curtains; make temperature control difficult and expensive; and reduce your privacy and security while you're at home.
If you are tired of struggling with these problems, there is a simple solution: window film. Window film allows you to continue to enjoy the view through your windows while protecting you and your family from the sun's excessive heat, glare, and harmful UV rays.
Window film provides a host of benefits including enhancing comfort, saving money, increasing security, and providing you with peace of mind - all the while increasing the value of your biggest investment: your home.General Solar Company has been providing professional window film and glass coating installations for residential and commercial applications since 1969!

Services
Since becoming involved in the window film industry in 1969, General Solar Company has been one of the highest regarded window film installers in the Washington Metropolitan area. We have provided quality installations and service to many homeowners and prominent buildings in the greater Washington DC area including Maryland and Northern Virginia.
Larger cities and metropolitan areas are enforcing new energy efficiency laws to reduce the carbon footprint of commercial buildings. For example, Clean Energy DC is the District of Columbia's plan to reduce emissions by 56% in 2032. Additionally, the Climate Action Plan is Montgomery County's strategic plan to cut greenhouse gas emissions 80% by 2027 and 100% by 2035.
Are your heating and air conditioning needs leading to exorbitant energy bills? If you're wondering how to reduce the cost of maintaining a comfortable temperature in your home, then window film may be the answer you've been searching for. Do you live in an area prone to hurricanes, high winds, and snow storms?
Maintaining a comfortable interior temperature at home and at work is essential for optimal productivity and general well-being. Windows are the main avenue of heat loss and gain in homes and commercial spaces. During the warmer months, infrared rays entering your space cause unpleasant hotspots. Conversely, the warmth being produced by your heater during the winter escapes through the glass.
Windows are the most vulnerable part of any structure. When an intruder is unable to enter through a door, the next best point of entry is a window. With a simple swing of a crowbar or baseball bat, a burglar can shatter a window and gain entry. This poses a serious threat to your family, employees, and property.

These guys were great! Called me back right away and came out the same day. I've never tinted house window before and the rep was very helpful walking me through the options and explaining what would work best. I had a quote within the same day and install the next week. Still waiting on other companies to call me back-just sayin'. Highly recommend!

I was very pleased with the service from General Solar. Although it was a very small project, the staff went the extra mile to help me communicating with the permit office to have the product approved. They stayed with the project even though it was made more complicated by permitting requirements. I really appreciated their efforts.

Called General Solar with a quick turn around job. We needed to black out a few windows on a commercial project. David's customer service was excellent, fast and very professional. They got out to the job site, determined what we needed and a few days later had the job complete. Highly recommend and will be using again.

Very impressive company. Highly responsive, good recommendations, quick installation, LOVE the result. Just what every company should be like (but isn't). I was all the more impressed because my job was very small - so I was especially pleased to be treated as if it were a big project.
